Red Alert (1) - Tesla Coil Reforged port

Oh boy, that looks bad.
Why did you squeeze the icon and not cut it appropriately?
The sphere on top should be a round sphere and not an egg.

I asked a moderator to move your icon to Ported. You can use the same thread for both Classic and Reforged versions.

The problem is, this is an automatic generated icon by the Site. The site does not allow me to upload the resized icons that I made with my PC. This is fully automatic. Hope the others are going to be better. Oh, and on the ported icons I cannot add the authors section both of the developer studios somehow. Only one author can be mentioned.

Regarding Reforged Icon Resolution

Do we have any information on what will be the resolution of Reforged ability icons and icons in general? I’m making a series of icons for a custom Warcraft 3 Map at the moment, and knowing it will eventually get ported to Reforged i’d like to work on an optimal resolution right from the get go...

I wanted to upload a 256x256 image.

I did everything by the Icon section rules:

Resource Submission Rules (Models, skins, icons, spells & systems)

Thanks for the Link deepstrasz, I uploaded a newer version, which is made by using the template from the "Full Icon Tutorial - Reforged + Tool". Hope now the quality is OK.

 

[deepstrasz]

Should I upload this to the other ports as well? After that, I delete this upload.

No. It's OK. There's two threads now in Ported, one for Reforged and one for Classic.
Don't multipost please
